The cost of the project has skyrocketed from $750,000 to $3,500,000 in federal-ai- d primary funds (federal sources would provide 90 percent funding).

THE COUNCIL unanimously accepted most of the citys new zoning ordinance, allowing contractors to begin work on projects held up because the old zoning ordinance was in conflict with new proposals. The council did not accept Section 11. That section includes a breakdown of residential lot sizes. That section will be reviewed and revised. CITY PLANNING Consul tant Albert Cole said he feels the new ordinance is superior to the former statute. I think things are spelled out more clearly. A tighter sight plan and open space requiremens are required over those in tHe old ordinance. I think the city will accept it but it will take some working out, he said refer- ring to Section 11. They left out a breakdown of residential lots but have a breakdown of zones. Subdivisions of less than 10 lots can develop one type. If they have over 10 lots they have to have a certain size home for the type of lot. FOR EXAMPLE, a 1,000 square foot home will be forced the UDOT (Utah Department of Transportat- ion) to add a free ture flow struc- the interchange to on allow truck traffic to leave the north bound interstate for the west without exiting onto the surface street and making a left turn across traffic. It now appears redesign of the interchange will result in the need for an additional structure and about ten acres of Plans for the should be interchange finished by UDOT by the end of the year but that's no guarantee that financing will be available," the letter said. I assure you I will keep this project in mind when we hold discussions with UDOT engineers. right-of-wa- BUT MAYOR Shields was a bit disturbed, judging from his tone of voice in a I telephone interview. havent had any contact from the state. I was quite dis- turbed when I received the letter (dated June 27). It has been proven that there is a need for the facility. We feel its needed. Weve got only one full interchange at 232 and Hill Field Road and one-haof an interchange south of town, the mayor continued. We dont think that's adequate with our lf growth. 1 HEARD through the grapevine that someone from the federal or state level feels that it really isnt needed he said, ad(interchange), numerous atding that tempts to get an appoint- - ment with Gov. Matheson had been unsuccessful. I feel were being set aside and ignored. In an interview with Mr. Zollinger Wednesday morning, he said his office was working to complete revised plans, including two alternative proposals for the interchange, by weeks end. And if they are completed by Friday, word could be back from federal officials within three weeks. A$1.5 million interchange could be built but it probably wouldnt be Zollinger said. safe, But Mr. with input revisions planned after was received from public hearings and further study, the $3.5 million figure would be realistic. The extra cost would be generated by widening of Antelope Drive to four lanes at the interchange site, an additional structure to handle exit of northbound truck traffic and purchase of extra land to meet those needs, he said. OF THE two proposals, Mr. Zollinger said a diamond interchange was favored but distance over it wouldnt be sufficient to allow for turns from the north bound lane to the west without problems from oncoming traffic. The other plan would follow a pattern similar to the Centerville interchange where the access road would be nearly flat allowing drivers to view oncoming traffic and adjust driving accordingly. While some land has been purchased for the project another 6V2 acres might be necessary, he continued. Fuel Deadline At Hand FUEL REQUESTS should include name and address, intended .end use, volume of natural gas needed and amount of natural gas received over the last months for which records available, he continued. 12 are Documentation must also be provided to support the calculated need.

Increased demand obsolete, necessary for an 8,000 square h or acre lot; 1,200 on a 9,000 square foot lot and 1,300 on a quarter-acr- e piece, Mr. Cole said. That includes existing lots as well as future sites, he said. It will take more enforcement and will put more demand on the building department.
